摘要
交通政策的产生是因为全球经济、社会和政治实践的几乎每个方面都很重要。交通运输被视为促进、发展和塑造国民经济的关键机制。本研究的目的是研究道路运输政策对尼日利亚联邦首都地区阿布贾经济发展的作用:利益相关者的看法。本研究采用第一手资料和二手资料作为数据来源。该分析的有效回答者为160人。使用5份李克特问卷收集数据。分析使用Microsoft Excel和IBM statistical package for social science (SPSS) Version 26进行。采用有目的抽样技术从联邦首都地区运输秘书处选出5名负责道路运输政策的主管进行访谈。第二手资料全部来自出版的材料和政府的正式文件和档案。联邦首都地区运输秘书处、国家计划委员会、联邦交通部及其半州政府和公共企业局是数据的主要来源。文件审查和访谈的结果表明,缺乏充分实施、资金限制、腐败和制度框架的制定将使投资者有信心投资于道路,这些都是影响道路运输政策的因素。受访者一致认为,道路交通政策通过提供通往工作场所、学校和市场的便捷通道,促进了经济发展。然而,从问卷调查结果中发现,道路基础设施和安全与经济发展呈正相关且显著。该研究的结论是,政府应加快行动,建立体制框架,不仅要执行该法案的改革实施,还要通过税收为道路基础设施发展提供必要的资金。

Transport policies arise because of the importance of virtually every aspects of global economic, social, and political exercise. Transport is seen as key mechanism for promotion, development and shaping of national economy. The purpose of this research is to study the roles of road transport policy on economic development in Federal Capital Territory Abuja, Nigeria: Stakeholders Perception. The study employed both primary and secondary as data sources. The valid respondents for the analysis was 160. Five Likert-scale type questionnaires were used for collecting data. The analysis was conducted with the aid of Microsoft Excel and IBM statistical package for social science (SPSS) Version 26. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 5 Directors for interviews from the Federal Capital Territory Transport Secretariat who are the custodian of road transport policy. Secondary sources were obtained wholly from published materials and official Government documents and files. Federal Capital Territory Transport Secretariat, The National Planning Commission, Federal Ministry of Transport, and its Parastatals, and the Bureau for Public Enterprises were the main sources of data. The finding from the document review and interview reveals that lacks of full implementation, funding constraints, corruption and enactments of institutional framework that will give investors’ confidence to invest in roads are factors affecting the road transport policy. The interviewees agreed that policies of road transportation enhance economic development by providing easy access to the workplace, schools, and markets. However, finding from the questionnaires result reveals that, road infrastructures and safety were positively and significantly related with economic development. The study concluded that government should expediate action to establish institutional framework that will not only execute the reforms implementation with the Act but generate necessary fund for road infrastructural development through taxes.
